M.O.B outfit I think I have found one.

slightlymad, 5 April, 2011 at 20:34 Posted on Planning 0 16

Ok, so I don't 'do' dresses and I don't have much self confidence but I think I have found the perfect dress. I think it's probably a little OTT but obviously I can have it altered a little. Opinions please...

TIA

    Thankyou, obviously I won't be holding flowers that would be too 'bride' like. I have a small ivory diamante encrusted clutch bag instead. I have also made a very traditional MOB feather fascinator.

    Absolutely not.

    You wouldn't want to upstage the Bride.

    And why am I not allowed to upsatge the bride? I am her mother and all eyes should be on me as I am paying for the majority of it? I don't understand your logic.

    I'm confused, doesn't MOB mean mother of the bride? Why would you wear a wedding dress?

    ...or is this an april fool?

    I can have the dress altered so it doesn't look too weddingy, take the waterfall bit off etc.. It's just that the corsetry in wedding dresses is fab so it holds me in in all the right places, nothing else would look as good on me

    I'm confused isn't this a picture of a wedding dress. Are you having it in a different colour? I'd be well mad if my mum wanted to wear something like this, you wouldnt know who was the bride lol.

    Are you having us on?

    Wow fabulous Naboo, that would be a perfect accessory!

    Yes I am having you on! was having a conversation about MOB outfits and that I couldn't find anything so I thought I would post this. I have a strange sense of humour, I thought you would all find it funny. Apologies!

    Honey it's perfect!

    Ok maybe not the flowers because they are too small and the MOB must carry a larger bouquet!
